As of March 2021, Telstra has reintroduced data sharing between all of its Upfront mobile and Upfront data plans under the same account. Previously, data sharing was limited to its family and data share SIM plans only.
You won't need to activate data sharing yourself. Once these plans are under the same account, Telstra data sharing will automatically be available across all plans.
Data sharing can't be disabled and all users on the account can access all the data with no restrictions.
Once the entire pool has been used up, all linked accounts will have their download speed capped at 1.5Mbps until the following month.
